      Definite highlight of our NZ trip
      Damon was a great instructor to have, and the experience as a whole was top shelf. All in all I’d easily be back to do it again the next time we’re on the south island for sure, and it was good to know they also offer experiences like this back home in Australia too.

      Afternoon Delight
      A great, fun time had by all at the amazing mini golf course at Highlands. Still talking about it and laughing about some of the tricky and dumb situations we got ourselves into on the course. The ‘Slippery Lizzard’ and ‘Hugo Bridge’ two of our most memorable holes. I can’t wait to go back for more. Was well worth it filling in our afternoon. We finished off at the ‘19th Hole’ aka Highlands Cafe for a talley up of scores and enjoyed well deserved beverages and a bite to eat. A visit to the ‘loos with views’ also created another spate of laughter. Highlands, you’re simply the best. Thank you.

      Nearly perfect day
      This thing is absolutely sensational and understand why you need an expert sitting beside you! I haven’t felt speed like it and glad someone was in my ear to give me gear changing/braking instructions. Downside was that the downshift peddle wasn’t working as it should. I think this agitated the instructor but it just wouldn’t down shift at corners and it kind of ruined the experience. They recognised the fault but wasn’t offered any additional laps or anything extra. For, I think is the most expensive package, then more could have been done. Exceptional day otherwise and I’ll definitely be going again.

      Great place, you have to go.
      Hey, these guys are good. The location is just unprecedented and everything feels new and is kept so well. The staff are the best, I know it's a job for them but it just didn't feel that way, they were really interesting and interested, from the booking in area to the go karting team. Go karting was excellent, I got within 10% of the time of the F1 Red Bull driver Liam Lawson, of which half must be accounted for by relative weight! And the "Loo with a View" is brilliant fun idea, watch the circuit activity whilst doing what everyone has to do. Lots more f choice for all the family. And the circuit hosts the NZ GP, only one of two GPs allowed by The FIA outside of F1. Great place, you have to go.

      Great Treat
      What an amazing experience … the cars were Super 🤣 no literally Supercars. The driving was superb and the Golf Putt Range was a hoot. We did t go Karting but will do that next time. Honestly it was a cash treat for us but what a way to spend the morning…. Great fun

      So much fun
      We went to Highlands and did the Go Karting as a family with my brother and his family and my adult daughter. Some of us are rather competitive…. It was a complete blast!! Only wished we did the 2 x 10 minutes and not just the 1 x 10 minutes 😂🚗 Would highly recommend this!!

      Not Impressed
      Kids run the show, they also put twin seated go carts on track at same time.? Yet they are 10km slower, so if they drive on your libe and you accidentally hit them you get a penalty. Absolute BS in my view.. You get 10 mins of drivectime. 10 laps.. I had a penalty given to me for the exact reason.. Racing is competitive, it's called GO CART RACING..????? NOT SUNDAY DRIVE WITH NANA... if we can't drive like we are racing than what's the point. THINK ABOUT IT.!!!!!!

      Experience great but have lunch elsewhere
      The go carts and mini golf were fantastic a great family day out however it was let down by the cafe food. It was over priced, inconsistent portions and pretty basic.

      Amazing Experience
      I thoroughly enjoyed my experience at Highland Motorsports driving the Radical U-drive! The staff's expertise and enthusiasm made the whole event unforgettable. They provided excellent guidance, ensuring I felt confident and excited on the track. Highly recommend this experience for anyone looking for an adrenaline rush! The Highland Motorsports park is a great place to visit!

      Family Thrills
      The Highlands Taxi was a very unique family experience - we all loved it. The museum houses some automotive royalty and pleasant surprises racing nerds. The special toilets are lol.

      High powered
      Paul was such a great instructor and by the final lap I’d really gotten into the feel of it. This was something I booked on the day at the centre (it was quite) as I’d been discouraged from booking the experience online due to the min height requirement (165 cm I’m 152 cm). Happy I asked about it. The drive was such a buzz and I would love to do it again some time.

      Getting a "little" radical with the Radical
      Wow!! What a blast. Always a few nerves stepping into the unknown, but with Paul's guidance and encouragement I got to experience just a little of what he and his colleagues do for a living and it is certainly addictive and over too quickly. Definitely want to be back for more.

    We saw the promotion and purchased a one-lap Supercar Fast Dash for $199 and a second person to experience the same product for $99. It was an exhilarating and memorable ride! We also got to record the session on our mobile devices with the aid of a mounted stand in the Ferrari. We also visited the museum and my husband was completely engaged in this experience.

    Wow. So exciting. I pulled into a park and could see a new Ferrari 488 GTB (I got told what it was). I booked a super car fast dash and while I was being looked after by the friendliest young lady I decided to do 2 laps and that wasn’t a problem. It had started spitting rain so she quickly got me ready and it was all go. Tom was my driver and her was lovely and friendly too I felt safe as. He mounted my phone, I chose to record the track. He asked me if I was ready and I said yes and off we went. I talked way too much. It was the best thing ever, the highlight of my holiday. I was high on adrenaline for ages after the laps. I had a good look around the amazing museum, the cars and trucks are superb. There is a room with videos and pictures of famous people in the racing industry speaking of their experiences and there are simulation seats and headsets where you can select a driver to talk you around the track. The cafe was also wonderful and their staff were as friendly. The go cart area, I never made it there but you can see it from the main building and it looks as choice there were children playing on the flying fox. Oh, loo with a view, magic, I went into just the one and it was really posh, you could watch the races from there. I am definitely going there again, and again…

    Went out today for the hot lap in the Ferrari, and what a hot lap. Breanne was amazing taking me and my wife for a lap each, which were the best Xmas gifts ever. So then we treated ourselves to the Porsche electric launch experience. Damon got us from 0 to 100km in 2.4 sec.
    The rest of the staff were amazing from check in to the cafe.
    Some might say it's expensive but you don't have to fuel it, insure it,or service it , so good value all round.

    I throughly enjoyed my laps around the track. I took 1 lap in the Ferrari 488 and 1 in the Porsche GT3. Both were really fun and completely different rides. The Ferrari is loud, fast and throws you back, but the Porsche just sticks to the track like glue.
    The check-in staff was friendly and accommodating and the drivers were informative.
    I highly recommended this to any auto buff.

    I recently visited for a ride in the Ferrari for my birthday present from my partner. It was the perfect present for me as I love fast cars, and make no mistake, the Ferrari was fast. Damon Leitch was the driver who took me around the track and he was brilliant, he's a great guy and a brilliant driver. We hit 220 Kph on the straight and he got airborne over the bridge... it was simply sensational and I recommend it to anyone. The facility itself is amazing with a nice cafe and a great museum. Go and visit, you be disappointed.

    I had heard of the fast dash in a supercar at highland park and booked in a retirement gift today. The anticipation was also magnified by the 10 lap go kart experience immediately before. I thought I was fast but lapped by 3 guys on a stag do!! Steve got me into the Ferrari with hair net and helmet. Explained what we were going to do and bang we were off. Fantastic acceleration and grip, videoed the lap and Steve was not only a superb driver but happy to converse along the way!!! Great experience which summed up the whole experience at highland park. Fantastic, professional and super friendly. I will be back!!

    A Place worth visiting, with limited time available we spent the entire time in the Car Museum which turned out to be one of the best. A good café adjacent all with a view over the track. Thoroughly recommended if you like Cars. Next time I will go for a drive/ride in one of their cars.

    just a note to say thank you heaps for the experiences we had the staff were friendly and informative. My wife and i loved the museum and all the great stuff about drivers etc.
    i did a couple of hot laps in the GT 3 and thoroughly enjoyed them, i thought for some silly reason my driver looked familiar as a pro driver i was sure i had seen him before but cant think where, i only wish i had done the drive experience, will definitely put that on my list for next time. my 7yo daughter loved the tandem kart. i have to say loo with a view was a highlight very funny.

    What a fantastic experience. I had two laps of high adrenaline racing in a Porsche. Andrew Waite drove me around the track and his ability and handling of the car was absolutely brilliant hitting speeds of 210 kph on the straight. I definitely recommend this to anyone who loves speed. Highlands itself is amazing with the car museum, cafe and great viewing platform for watching the racing. MUST DO.

    Andrew took me for an amazing lap in the Ferrari. He was cool, calm and friendly ensuring I was okay. This was a wonderful, exhilarating experience which I could have done again happily, immediately after. The track has fun corners, some stomach turning bumps but so much fun! I wish there was an opportunity for a photo with the driver in the car but no other complaints. The car museum was interesting and the coffee and macaroon at the cafe perfect on the deck with the view of the track and awesome Central Otago sun.
